The LT1 'Kitt' that should've been. Hey guys,
Just thought I'd post a link as a record for the modding I've done. I'm sure some of you won't like it. Still; where else would I come to talk about my car?
Thanks.

As always this grand project continues for my own reasons. In other words, I was in no way attempting to represent 'Trans Am' with any of my remolding, customizing, or digitizing.
Though the T/A is my favorite car, and always will be. I am far too interested in learning an building professionally than I could ever be for the singular product of any one corporation. I've written three essays on the subject, one of which I believe I posted before, titled 'The Knight Excuse'.
In short, for me, the car is a means to an end, or possibly a friend.
Your all right about the movie. Shorter cuts. Got it. I just wanted to make a silly commercial to in a small possibly immeasureable way detract interest and support for Ford's GT500KR, while my car still has no current year model.
My apoligies for any offense taken at the sight of my car to Pontiac or GM purists lurking or hopping about. I suppose I never have received much in the way of positive feedback from LS1Tech, but I still love this site. It feels online the way my garage feels late at night. Busy and productive at any rate. And whether you know it or not all of you are helpful to me.
Thanks again.

To each their own, i personally wouldn't do that to my car without spending a horrific amount of time tastefully customizing it to the point where 90% people who saw it would be like omg....that's awesome. But, that requires tons of money and dedication to the whole Kitt deal. which i lack in full lol.
But on a side note, the fact that they went with a ford mustang for the new 'kitt' is amazingly retarded. It is, and should forever be a Trans Am.

I remember the movie. Funny thing was the "t/a" in that movie was a fwd concept if I remember right. At the end it did a burnout out and the front tires spun.

such disrespect....
Though I'm not the biggest fan of how it looks... anyone who dedicates time, effort, and most of all has a passion about what he does, deserves some credit. What surprises me most though, is that after people insult you, you apologize, say how much you still love this site, and then thank everyone... that shows some true character. My friend, thank YOU for showing us your passion/dream, and having enough ***** to take harsh insults and still not be discouraged. Hats off to you brother

I feel horrible for how people here treated you man. I mean just blatent ******* comments. Certainly looks like you have a passion for your car. And that's something 99.999% of the people on this site have. GJ and keep it up.
I do have to agree the vid was too long though!! You definatly have to get some videos of it comin up the road at speed with the light goin in the front. GL

the car looks ...ok... i didnt like the interior though if thats really your interior. a lot of props to take something that a lot of people have and make it custom. everyone has their own opinions on stuff, the comment about you suck at life...that was uncalled for, plain and simple... 
my previous post as arrogant and very assholish, its a mistake i cant take back. sorry 
and plus 1 on the video with it at night coming up with the light going.

Yeah I'm kinda ashamed at how ls1tech members are coming off at this. Were all the haters online at the same time when this was posted? You guys just aren't posting your opinions, you're downright insulting not just his car, but him, his clothes. Jesus.
I wouldn't do it to my car but it took a lot of work and it's still a clean looking car. It's not riced out and he's a fan of the original series. I personally think it's "cool" in it's own way. To each his own.
